Contract Clause Checklist
Check whether a draft contains the structural clause families expected for its stated agreement type.
Input
Contract review checklist: the clause families this tool checks
A contract review checklist is the list you work through before signing, so the review does not depend on what the reviewer happened to remember. This tool applies one: it reads the pasted agreement and reports which of thirteen structural clause families it can find and which it cannot.
- Parties and definitions — who is bound, and the defined terms the rest of the agreement leans on
- Scope and obligations — the services or deliverables each side owes
- Fees and payment — amounts, payment terms, and what happens when an invoice is late
- Term and termination — how long it runs, how it renews, and how either side gets out
- Confidentiality — what is protected, for how long, and the carve-outs
- Intellectual property — who owns what existed before, and what gets created
- Data protection — personal-data handling, and whether a separate DPA is needed
- Warranties — what each side promises is true
- Indemnity — who covers whom, and for which claims
- Limitation of liability — the cap, and what is excluded from it
- Notices — where a valid notice has to be sent, and how
- Governing law — the law that applies and the courts that hear a dispute
- Execution — signature blocks and signing authority
Detection is literal: the checker looks for each family's own vocabulary in your text, so a clause written in unusual wording can read as missing, and a heading with nothing under it can read as present. Anything deal-specific — SLAs, exclusivity, non-solicit, insurance minimums — sits on top of this base. It reports structure, never whether a clause is good for you; that judgment is a lawyer's.

| Storage | Nothing stored | The submitted material is processed for the request only. |
What should a contract review checklist cover?
At minimum the thirteen structural families above: parties and definitions, scope and obligations, fees and payment, term and termination, confidentiality, intellectual property, data protection, warranties, indemnity, limitation of liability, notices, governing law and execution. Deal-specific items such as SLAs, exclusivity or insurance minimums are added on top — which is why this checker reports structure rather than scoring the deal.
